Electron gun with dynamic focus
First Claim
1. An electron gun for a color cathode ray tube comprising:
- a triode including a cathode, a control electrode adjacent to and spaced from the cathode and a screen electrode adjacent to and spaced from the control electrode, said triode generating an electron beam;
a lens system including a first electrode supplied with a static voltage, a second electrode supplied with a dynamic voltage and synchronized with a deflection signal, a third electrode supplied with the static voltage and a fourth electrode supplied with the dynamic voltage and synchronized with the deflection signal, said first through fourth electrodes arranged sequentially adjacent to said triode, said third electrode having an incoming plane facing said second electrode and an outgoing plane facing said fourth electrode and having a vertically-elongated electron beam passing hole, and said fourth electrode having an incoming plane facing said outgoing plane of said third electrode and having a horizontally-elongated beam passing hole;
a final accelerating electrode adjacent to and spaced from said fourth electrode, said final accelerating electrode being supplied with a voltage greater than the dynamic voltage and greater than the static voltage,whereby an axially symmetrical and dynamic unipotential-type lens which is synchronized with said deflection signal, is formed by said first, second and third focus electrodes, anda quadruple lens which is synchronized with said deflection signal and compensates for defocusing due to the astigmatism of a deflection yoke and difference between deflection distances, is formed between said third and fourth electrodes.

Abstract
An electron gun for a color cathode ray tube includes a triode having a cathode, a control electrode and a screen electrode for producing an electron beam, and first, second, third and fourth focus electrodes and a final accelerating electrode for accelerating and focusing the electron beam. A predetermined static focus voltage is supplied to the first and third focus electrodes, a dynamic focus voltage synchronized with a deflection signal is supplied to the second and fourth focus electrodes, and an anode voltage higher than the highest dynamic focus voltage is supplied to the final accelerating electrode. Thus, by means of a dynamic and axially symmetrical lens, astigmatism of the electron beam spot on the periphery of the screen is improved, thereby forming an almost circular beam spot. Due to the dynamic variation of intensity of the main lens, the spot size on the periphery of the screen approaches is the spot size on the center of the screen through adjustment of the focusing distance of the electron beam.
